Aquarium Advice Regular
Well I never really worried about the PH of my water before but after doing some heavy reading about the nitrogen cycle due to setting up my new 45G I decided to test all the parameters on both tanks. Was a bit shocked to find the ph at 5.5 since our tap water here is around 6.8. The tank has regular colored gravel in it, lots of plants, 2 mollies, 7 tetras, 1pleco, 2 adult guppies, 7 juvenile guppies, and a few tiny babies. I probably overfeed lately in the hope that no one gets hungry for the babies.
Why is my ph so low and is that bad for the mollies. I came home today and found my male Molly wrapped around the intake. Now his two lady friends will never make babies in my tank.
